6 bed detached house for sale

Coles Lane, Oakington CB24

A beautiful 5 bedroom detached Victorian house of about 3200 sq. Ft, with a large contemporary extension and mature grounds of about 1/2 acre.

This handsome and imposing house is located in the centre of the village, enclosed by high brick walling and accessed via electric gates.

The accommodation is extensive and has been stylishly refurbished by the current owners. There is a large reception hall which has a bay window and french doors to the front garden, an open fireplace, an unusual and striking curved staircase and woodblock floor. The drawing room has a dual aspect, and a marble fireplace. The dining room has an attractive fireplace and stripped floorboards. The current owners extended the house at the rear with a significant, open-plan living space that includes two large sliding doors with electric blinds, rooflights and large-format floor tiles with underfloor heating. The original external brickwork has been retained within the extension as a feature wall, and there is also an integrated sound system. The kitchen area has a fabulous island with a quartz countertop and waterfall end panels. Appliances are all built-in and include an induction hob, extractor and two ovens as well as a boiling water tap. The original kitchen area has been retained as a scullery/large utility room, and it is fitted with handmade units and an additional gas range cooker. There is a butler sink and an exposed brick floor. The layout is perfect for large families and those who like to entertain.

There are two staircases to the first floor, meaning the layout is particularly flexible. There are five good-sized bedrooms, all have fitted cupboards, and three have original stripped floorboards. There is a family bathroom and two en-suites, all have been completely refitted with high-quality sanitaryware and attractive wall and floor tiling.

The house has gas central heating, a burglar alarm and CCTV.
